Bi-modal public transit system for Berlin and Brandenburg

Puneet Sharma, Stephan Herminghaus, Knut M. Heidemann

Bi-modla public transport system consisting of a rail-bound line service and a fleet of on-demand shuttles providing connections to the line service stops is studied for the states…

Sustainable and convenient: bi-modal public transit systems outperforming the private car

Puneet Sharma, Knut M. Heidemann, Helge Heuer +2

Mobility is an indispensable part of modern human societies, but the dominance of motorized individual traffic (MIV, i.e., the private car) leads to a prohibitive waste of energy a…

A control theory approach to optimal pandemic mitigation

Prakhar Godara, Stephan Herminghaus, Knut M. Heidemann

In the framework of homogeneous susceptible-infected-recovered (SIR) models, we use a control theory approach to identify optimal pandemic mitigation strategies. We derive rather g…

Topology determines force distributions in one-dimensional random spring networks

Knut M. Heidemann, Andrew O. Sageman-Furnas, Abhinav Sharma +3

Networks of elastic fibers are ubiquitous in biological systems and often provide mechanical stability to cells and tissues. Fiber reinforced materials are also common in technolog…

Topology counts: force distributions in circular spring networks

Knut M. Heidemann, Andrew O. Sageman-Furnas, Abhinav Sharma +3

Filamentous polymer networks govern the mechanical properties of many biological materials. Force distributions within these networks are typically highly inhomogeneous and, althou…

Elasticity of 3D networks with rigid filaments and compliant crosslinks

Knut M. Heidemann, Abhinav Sharma, Florian Rehfeldt +2

Disordered filamentous networks with compliant crosslinks exhibit a low linear elastic shear modulus at small strains, but stiffen dramatically at high strains. Experiments have sh…

Elastic response of filamentous networks with compliant crosslinks

A. Sharma, M. Sheinman, K. M. Heidemann +1

Experiments have shown that elasticity of disordered filamentous networks with compliant crosslinks is very different from networks with rigid crosslinks. Here, we model and analyz…
